We have no firm updates about the Drove Lane closures next week: we believe that from 5th to 7th October there will be no access to the air museum from the A46 direction – so approach from the A17 direction. www.newarkairmuseum.org/on-the-radar... #EveryNAMvisitCounts

TruckFest is on the #Newark Showground this weekend, so we suggest that you allow a little more travel time when visiting the museum & approach from the A17 direction. We’re open as usual but some extra advice is in here: www.newarkairmuseum.org/on-the-radar...
